2 Regents Biology 2006-2007 Cell Membranes & Movement Across Them

3 Regents Biology Cell (plasma) membrane  Cells need an inside & an outside…  separate cell from its environment  cell membrane is the boundary IN food - sugars - proteins - fats salts O2O2 H2OH2O OUT waste - ammonia - salts - CO 2 - H 2 O products - proteins cell needs materials in & products or waste out

4 Regents Biology Building a membrane  How do you build a barrier that keeps the watery contents of the cell separate from the watery environment? What substance do you know that doesn’t mix with water?  FATS   LIPIDS  Remember: oil & water don’t mix!!

5 Regents Biology Lipids of cell membrane  Membrane is made of special kind of lipid  phospholipids  “split personality”  Membrane is a double layer  phospholipid bilayer inside cell outside cell lipid “repelled by water” “attracted to water” phosphate

6 Regents Biology Semi-permeable membrane  Cell membrane controls what gets in or out  Need to allow some materials — but not all — to pass through the membrane  semi-permeable  only some material can get in or out aa H2OH2O sugar lipidssalt waste So what needs to get across the membrane? O2O2

7 Regents Biology Crossing the cell membrane  What molecules can get through the cell membrane directly?  fats and oils can pass directly through inside cell outside cell lipid salt aa H2OH2O sugar waste but… what about other stuff?

8 Regents Biology Cell membrane channels  Need to make “doors” through membrane  protein channels allow substances in & out  specific channels allow specific material in & out  H 2 O channel, salt channel, sugar channel, etc. inside cell outside cell sugaraa H2OH2O salt waste

9 Regents Biology How do you build a semi-permeable cell membrane?  Channels are made of proteins  proteins both “like” water & “like” lipids bi-lipid membrane protein channels in bi-lipid membrane

10 Regents Biology Protein channels  Proteins act as doors in the membrane  channels to move specific molecules through cell membrane HIGH LOW

11 Regents Biology Movement through the channel  Why do molecules move through membrane if you give them a channel? ? ? HIGH LOW

12 Regents Biology Molecules move from high to low  Diffusion  move from HIGH to LOW concentration  Will reach equilibrium: equal concentration on either side of barrier

13 Regents Biology Diffusion  Move from HIGH to LOW concentration  passive transport  no energy needed diffusionosmosis diffusion of water

14 Regents Biology Simple Diffusion  Move from HIGH to LOW inside cell outside cell Which way will fat move? fat LOW HIGH

15 Regents Biology Facilitated Diffusion  Move from HIGH to LOW through a channel inside cell outside cell sugar Which way will sugar move? sugar LOW HIGH

16 Regents Biology Diffusion  Move from HIGH to LOW concentration  directly through membrane  simple diffusion  no energy needed  help through a protein channel  facilitated diffusion (with help)  no energy needed HIGH LOW

17 Regents Biology Simple vs. facilitated diffusion inside cell outside cell lipid inside cell outside cell H2OH2O simple diffusionfacilitated diffusion H2OH2O protein channel

18 Regents Biology Active transport  Cells may need molecules to move against concentration “hill”  need to pump “uphill”  from LOW to HIGH using energy  protein pump  requires energy  ATP ATP

19 Regents Biology Transport summary simple diffusion facilitated diffusion active transport ATP

20 Regents Biology 2006-2007 Osmosis Movement of Water Across Cell Membrane

21 Regents Biology Osmosis  Water is very important, so we talk about water separately  Osmosis  diffusion of water from HIGH concentration of water to LOW concentration of water  across a semi-permeable membrane

22 Regents Biology Keeping water balance  Cell survival depends on balancing water uptake & water loss freshwaterbalancedsaltwater

23 Regents Biology Keeping right amount of water in cell  Freshwater  a cell in fresh water  high concentration of water around cell  cell gains water  example: Paramecium  problem: cells gain water, swell & can burst  water continually enters Paramecium cell  solution: contractile vacuole  pumps water out of cell freshwater No problem, here KABOOM! 1

24 Regents Biology Types of solution  Hypotonic: Concentration of water molecules outside the cell is higher than concentration of inside cell  Cell will swell  Ex: Cell in freshwater. More water outside will flow into cell

25 Regents Biology Controlling water  Contractile vacuole in Paramecium

26 Regents Biology Keeping right amount of water in cell  Saltwater  a cell in salt water  low concentration of water around cell  cell loses water  example: shellfish  problem: cell loses water  in plants: plasmolysis  in animals: shrinking cell  solution: take up water saltwater I will survive! I’m shrinking, I’m shrinking! 2

27 Regents Biology Types of Solution  Hypertonic: Concentration of water molecules inside the cell is higher than the concentration outside the cell  Cell will shrink  Ex: Cell in saltwater. More water inside, so water leaves the cell to move to an area of lower concentration

28 Regents Biology Keeping right amount of water in cell  Balanced conditions  no difference in concentration of water between cell & environment  cell in equilibrium  example: blood  problem: none  water flows across membrane equally, in both directions  volume of cell doesn’t change balanced I could be better… That’s better! 3

29 Regents Biology Types of Solution  Isotonic: Concentrations of solutes (water) inside and outside of cell are equal  Cell remains the cell  Equal amount going in and out

30 Regents Biology Plant Cells  Plant cells are unique because they have cell walls.  Cell wall prevents cell from bursting when it swells. Builds turgor pressure  When water leaves the plant cell, the cell shrinks away from the cell wall and is called plasmolysis  Reason why plants wilt if they don’t have enough water
